Notes

Turner 1904. The plant species is described as Phyllanthus ferdinandi . An Indian larentiine species, Bosara emarginaria (Hampson, 1893) is known to feed on Breynia sp. ( Euphorbiaceae ) (P. Bell, pers. comm., in: Holloway 1997). The species Bosara minima was associated with the genera Chloroclystis Hübner and Gymnoscelis Mabille. The synonymy with B. refusaria Walker needs to be checked (see Holloway 1997).
